wherein I convince you all that I am a genius
Something momentous happened to me yesterday – a real milestone in my life.
I woke up with my first ever hangover.
See, Jim was having his monthly “smoke night” with the guys at our house and arranged to get me out of the house. So “his girls” (ha, he always said he’d never work with a bunch of women!) and I went out on the town. I’ve really been in need of some girl time with people my age, so my elation of being out of the house without two yap-o-matics to keep track of caused me to loose all forms of judgement.
While I didn’t think I drank that much, oh. my. God. I have never been so sick in my life. I couldn’t even keep one tiny swallow of water in my stomach. I felt so bad last night that I just sat there and cried. I was very certain that I was on the brink of death.
Luckily, sleeping all day and all night helped tremendously and today I’m functioning. It was definitely a lesson learned (a lesson in humility too!). One that I don’t plan on repeating. Ever.

It’s been years since I had anything like a hangover, but a couple of weeks ago I got together with my SIL and we had a bottle of wine between the two of us. We definitely had too much to drink.
Sigh. It made me feel young again. . .

I still haven’t had one of those. Lucky me! But I’m glad you got to go out on the town and enjoy yourself. AND! You got to recover. I would have likely had to have been up and caring for the kidlets while Mark worked. He’s ALWAYS working these days… sigh.

Glad you are functioning…must confess I heard about your night out through another participant, I think both of you won’t be doing that again anytime soon! Hee hee. Glad you got to have some good girl time, nonetheless. ;)

[…] Tomorrow I turn 26 years old. I own my own house, I’m married, I have two children, I own my own business – all things that would make one think I was the model of responsibility. One would think…. Today I am suffering from a hangover. Yes, go ahead, laugh. I should know better than this. In fact, I DO know better than this and I believe that I vowed to never let this happen again… yes, yes I did vow. […]
